IR Code for Thomson DTA (MediaCom Cable)

Post by boekjar »

I tried the 2009fi.rid file. On the plus side, this seems to be the only code that I've tried that actually makes the light on the front of the DTA flash... On the down side, the DTA does not seem to respond otherwise to the remote's commands.
Now, let me pause here and say that this Thomson DTA is the DCI1011GEM1 (instead of DCI1011COM). Has anybody seen this yet, or tested it out? (I'm not finding anything across the internet...)

Can you help me?

(This is for the ReplayTV 5040. I don't know anything about making an rid file... I've only learned how to install them with WiRNS.)

Recorded the IR signals with the JP1 tools to create the respective files. Unfortunately, I cannot get my RMDU file align with the ICT file. It seems the XMP fires a second signal which cannot be decoded properly as indicated in the DecodeIR.html document (http://www.hifi-remote.com/johnsfine/DecodeIR.html#XMP) The following is an example:

In the above example, signal 3 & 4 is the ChannelDown command as recorded from the LHD device profile. Signal 1 & 2 is ChannelDown command is recorded from my RMDU file uploaded to the Comcast-URC-1067 (CS301009). I'm not sure what to do from here. Is the second signal even necessary?
Remotes; JP1.2: Comcast URC-1067, JP1.3: Insignia NS-RC02U-10A, JP1.4 OARI06G, JP2.1: Cox URC-8820-MOTO (still trying to figure out how to make them self-aware.)
